A shocking new report says 2025 was the deadliest year for antisemitic attacks worldwide since 1994.
The J7 Large Communities’ Task Force Against Antisemitism released its second annual report, which tracks antisemitic hatred in the seven countries outside of Israel where over 90% of Jews live. According to the report, 20 people were killed in antisemitic attacks in 2025. All of the deadly attacks took place in J7 countries.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is one of two organizations representing the Jewish diaspora in the U.S. in the J7, which includes similar organizations from Australia, Canada, Argentina, the U.S., the U.K., Germany and France.

ADL Senior Director of Global Research and Diplomatic Affairs Aykan Erdemir told Fox News Digital that the report’s findings show “there’s no time to waste” in combating hate.
“This isn’t a warning sign anymore, it’s already happening,” Erdemir said. “If governments let antisemitism take root and perpetrators walk free, the violence won’t stop with Jewish communities. History shows Jews are the canary in the coal mine: when hatred against Jews rises unchecked, it’s an early warning that everyone’s safety and rights are at risk.”
The J7 report finds that there were over 23,000 antisemitic incidents in J7 countries throughout 2025 – this represented a 97% increase in violent incidents and a 136% increase in total antisemitic incidents since 2022.
The Hamas terror attacks of Oct. 7, 2023, sent antisemitic hate skyrocketing worldwide.
GERMAN OFFICIALS WARN ISLAMIST, FAR-LEFT RHETORIC DRIVING SPIKE IN ANTISEMITIC ATTACKS
According to the report, each of the countries face an environment where antisemitism is “no longer confined to the fringes.” Countries are witnessing anti-Zionism associated with the conflict in Gaza becoming “a vehicle for antisemitic expression” and educational institutions becoming an “acute flashpoint” for hatred. Combined with growing online extremism, Jewish people “across the globe report hiding their Jewish identity in public” and questioning “whether they have a future in their home countries.”
Individually, the report shows how countries face their own unique challenges in quashing hatred.
Australia, which has seen a 270% increase in antisemitic incidents since 2021, was home to the Bondi Beach terror attack in December 2025, during which 15 people were killed. The report says that both Islamist and left-wing extremist threats in the country “need to be prioritized, and dealt with effectively.”
In Germany, a 215% increase in antisemitic incidents has been coupled with the highest per capita rate of incidents, with 69.8 incidents per 1,000 Jewish residents in 2025 for a total of 8,725 incidents.
The report said that normalization of hate “remains the most pressing challenge” in Germany, with the rise in incidents attributed to the “confluence of far-right ethno-nationalism, left-wing anti-Zionism, and Islamist extremism simultaneously.”
In Canada, which has experienced a 60% rise in antisemitic incidents since 2021, there is a concern that “foreign state interference” is at play, in addition to “the exploitation of domestic institutions by extremist networks.”

The U.S. has had a 131% increase in antisemitic incidents since 2021. Though antisemitic incidents declined significantly from 2024, the 6,274 antisemitic incidents tracked in 2025 included 300 reports of physical assault.
France has witnessed a rise in antisemitic incidents of 124% since 2021. The report notes that there is “a growing climate of discrimination” where Jews in France report being refused service, denied contracts and excluded from events.
In the U.K., which has experienced a 64% increase in antisemitic incidents since 2021, 48% of 3,700 antisemitic incidents were motivated by anti-Zionism, and 53% included references to the conflict involving Gaza.
Though the government in Argentina is pro-Israel, the country “has generated conspiratorial antisemitic backlash from the left and from fringe nationalist movements,” the report said. Since 2021, Argentina has seen a 46% increase in antisemitic incidents.
The J7 report also added a special chapter on antisemitism in Ireland, which is not a J7 country. While Ireland has only a 2,200-person Jewish community, it has reported 143 incidents of antisemitism. Despite antisemitism in Ireland taking hold “primarily in everyday settings,” unlike J7 countries, Ireland has no national plan for combating antisemitism and no security funding for the Jewish population.
Erdemir said that “the most urgent priority for every government should be protecting Jewish communities and institutions before they’re attacked, not after.” He called on law enforcement to “hold perpetrators fully accountable,” but said that “the real goal has to be stopping attacks before they happen and preventing Jews from being driven out of public spaces, not just responding once the damage is done.”
Erdemir said, “Governments can’t rely on security alone. It takes a whole-of-society effort, government, business, schools, civil society and everyday citizens, to root out the hate targeting Jewish communities worldwide. And because this hate crosses borders, so must the response: governments, international bodies and NGOs around the world need to work together, not in isolation.”
